Chapter 244: Chapter 244 "Earth Dragon Shield

"This..."

Wyatt Barnes found himself in a quandary, wondering if taking Princess Irene home would result in Jovie peeling off his skin?

Thinking of Jovie’s jealousy, Wyatt felt a chill creep down his spine.

However, when he saw Princess Irene’s pitiful look, full of anticipation, Wyatt felt his resolve soften.

Why not just treat her as a guest...

Wyatt comforted himself.

As expected, when Wyatt arrived home with Princess Irene, he was instantly met with Jovie’s wary eyes.

A hint of an ambiguous smile appeared on Christina Lee’s face.

Additionally, Helen Sinclair was with Christina, and when Helen saw Princess Irene, a look of surprise crossed her beautiful face.

She hadn’t expected that a woman Wyatt casually brought home would be as beautiful as herself, Keer, and Jovie.

"Young Master, who is this beautiful lady?"

Keer blinked her big eyes and looked at Princess Irene, asking Wyatt.

"This is ’Princess Irene’."

Wyatt introduced Princess Irene to them with a smile.

Immediately, the women were taken aback.

Jovie, too, was surprised. She didn’t expect the woman Wyatt brought home to be Princess Irene.

Princess Irene, the most beautiful woman in Imperial City — she had heard about her.

"Greetings, Your Highness!"

In an instant, all four women, including Christina, slightly bowed to express their respect to Princess Irene.

"Aunt Natalie, we are not in the palace here. You don’t need to treat me like a princess."

Princess Irene lightly stepped forward, helped Christina up and smiled.

Christina gave a small nod as her autumn-like eyes fell on Wyatt, a subtle flirtatiousness in her gaze, causing Wyatt some embarrassment.

"You must be Sister Jovie?"

Princess Irene turned to Jovie. Her pitiful appearance made Jovie unable to help but smile. "Your Highness, do you know me?"

"Sister Jovie, you’re as beautiful as Wyatt described."

Princess Irene’s sweet words instantly dissolved any hostility and guard Jovie had against her. "Sister Jovie, you can call me Irene later."

"Alright, Irene, you’re beautiful as well. You are indeed the most beautiful woman in the Imperial City."

Jovie nodded with a smile, very fond of Irene who showed no airs of superiority.

"You must be Keer? I heard from Wyatt that you’re about my age. When were you born?"

Princess Irene turned to Keer and asked with a smile.

"Your Highness, I was born in September."

Keer,now much braver than before, felt confident even in front of a princess and engaged in a casual conversation.

"Then I am younger than you as I was born in December. From now on, I will call you ’Sister Keer’. You can call me ’Sister Irene’,like Jovie."

Princess Irene playfully stuck out her tongue at Keer, causing Keer to feel much more amicable towards her.

"Ah! I now have a sister, too!"

Keer’s face turned red as she murmured to herself, her red cheeks curled into a smile, mixed with a hint of excitement.

Seeing all this, Wyatt couldn’t help feel impressed.

No wonder she managed to survive in the royal family. Princess Irene really has her ways dealing with people. In no time, she had won the approval of all three women in his house.

"And you are?"

Lastly, Princess Irene turned to Helen Sinclair. Even Princess Irene herself couldn’t help but admire this lady who looked like a fairy descended from the heavens.

Her heart hasn’t stopped throbbing all day long.

Being hailed as the most beautiful woman in the Imperial City, Princess Irene always had confidence in her looks until today as she met three ladies whose beauty matched her own.

In addition to Wyatt’s two known women, the appearance of this elegant and refined woman stirred her heart.

She noticed that this woman, just like her, had feelings for Wyatt.

For a moment, she felt a sense of empathy.

"Your Highness, my name is Helen Sinclair."

Helen gave Princess Irene a wry smile, a hint of bitterness in her heart.

Seeing Princess Irene’s feelings for Wyatt and how quickly she won the approval of Wyatt’s family, Helen couldn’t help but envy her.

Remember that she has been acquainted with Wyatt’s family for several months but only managed to win Christina’s and Keer’s recognition. Jovie, however, was always on guard against her...

"Sister Helen."

Princess Irene smiled sweetly at Helen.

"Ah... you can carry on with your chat. I’m going back to my room to practice."

Seeing himself become a superfluous member of the conversation, Wyatt flashed a bitter smile and retreated to his room.

It’s said that three women together is a drama on its own. These four women together could even play a full round of mahjong back on Earth where Wyatt once lived

Returning to his room, Wyatt began to practice the martial arts skill attached to the third transformation of the Nine Dragons War Sovereign, the ’Flood Python Transformation.’

The defensive martial arts technique, ’Earth Dragon Shield’!

The Earth Dragon Shield was extremely domineering. Although it didn’t feature the reversal technique of the ’Grand Displacement’, it was stronger in terms of defense than most high-ranking profound level defensive martial arts techniques.

Even the mature-stage Earth Dragon Shield, its defense is comparable to any profound-level high-tier defensive martial arts technique at its perfected level!

"With the medicinal properties of the ’Blood Spirit Ganoderma,’ my ’Grand Displacement’ has broken through to the current perfected level... According to the memories of the Reincarnation Martial Emperor, if I can refine the ’Reverse Source Pill,’ it can stimulate the power of the Blood Spirit Ganoderma hidden in my flesh and blood."

The materials for the Reverse Source Pill are also part of the materials that Wyatt Barnes had various forces collect a month ago.

Wyatt Barnes took out his medicine tripod and began to refine the ’Reverse Source Pill’.

An hour later, the Reverse Source Pill was completed.

Next, he swallowed the Reverse Source Pill and began to evoke the medicinal power of the Blood Spirit Ganoderma hidden in his flesh and blood...

At the same time, he started cultivating the ’Earth Dragon Shield’.

Finally, under the vast assistance of the Blood Spirit Ganoderma, the Earth Dragon Shield smoothly broke through to the perfected level.

"Although the Earth Dragon Shield is stronger than most profound-level high-tier defensive martial arts techniques... by the time one reaches the Original Pill Realm, and power has risen to a certain level, even the strongest defensive techniques can only offset a portion of the power."

Wyatt Barnes was very clear about this.

According to Wyatt Barnes’s estimate, with his current cultivation at the third level of the Original Pill Realm, if he were to use the Earth Dragon Shield at full power, it could completely offset attacks from warriors below the ’Condensed Pill Realm.’

However, it would be impossible to completely offset an attack from a warrior in the Original Pill Realm.

It could only dissipate part of their attack power.

But even so, defensive techniques are still important.

In a battle between two warriors of equal cultivation and attack power...

If one of them doesn’t practice defensive techniques and another does, the one with the defensive technique would definitely win!

After completing the training of the Earth Dragon Shield, Wyatt Barnes regained his senses.

By this time, he noticed that it was already dark.

"I lost track of time."

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Wyatt Barnes walked out of the room. After eating dinner with the ladies, he proposed to escort Princess Irene away.

As for Helen Sinclair, she chose to stay.

Wyatt Barnes did not find Helen Sinclair’s decision surprising. It was indeed remarkable that Jovie Lee did not mind.

It was only when Wyatt Barnes returned after sending Princess Irene home that he found out why Jovie Lee suddenly became so ’generous.’

"We are leaving tomorrow. Aunt Natalie will not feel lonely with Helen Sinclair’s company," Jovie Lee said, touching Wyatt Barnes deeply.

That night, after making love, Jovie Lee leaned on Wyatt Barnes’s shoulder and whispered, "You scoundrel, I know Helen Sinclair and Sister Irene both have feelings for you..."

"What are you talking about, Jovie," Wyatt Barnes held Jovie, stroking her hair. She was clearly jealous...

"Humph! Denying you ever had any ideas?"

Jovie Lee looked at Wyatt Barnes, her expressive eyes fixed on him, leaving him no choice but to laugh bitterly.

Any regular man would have thoughts when faced with two beautiful women...

Plus, those two beauties are so kind-hearted and appealing.

"I’ve decided," Jovie said sternly.

"Decided what?" Wyatt was slightly nervous. This wasn’t Jovie planning something crazy, was it?

"...I’ve decided. If they want to join our family, they have to pass my test."

Jovie Lee smiled mysteriously, acting like a female boss.

"What test?" Wyatt Barnes asked curiously.

"Secret!"

Jovie Lee glanced at Wyatt Barnes and said no more.

Early the next morning, Wyatt Barnes, along with Keer, Jovie Lee, and Fill Bear, said goodbye to Aunt Natalie, Helen Sinclair, and housekeeper Valentina. They left the mansion and the Imperial City by horseback.

For the others, Wyatt Barnes had already said his goodbyes two days earlier.

The territory of the Royal Country of Green Forest is located to the northeast of the Crimson Heaven Kingdom. Wyatt Barnes’s group of four, riding swift horses, galloped out. They seemed like four streaks of red lightning, raising an endless cloud of dust.

"Hiss hiss~"

Under Wyatt Barnes’s long sleeve, two little pythons came out, sticking their tongues out excitedly, looking jubilant.

"You two little fellows know we’re leaving the Crimson Heaven Kingdom, don’t you?"

Wyatt looked at the two little pythons and chuckled.

Surprisingly, the two little pythons knodded humanely, looking very cheeky.

"Fill Bear, if we ride swift horses, how long will it take us to reach the ’Seven Stars Sword Clan’ if we rest at night?"

Wyatt Barnes mounted his horse and rode, while asking Fill Bear.

The Seven Stars Sword Clan is one of the top five sects in the Royal Country of Green Forest.

More than ninety percent of the disciples in the Seven Stars Sword Clan are sword cultivators. Sword cultivators have formidable attack power, which makes the Seven Stars Sword Clan very dominant in the Royal Country of Green Forest.

Even the other four top sects do not dare to provoke the ’Seven Stars Sword Clan’ casually.

All this, Wyatt Barnes learned from Fill Bear.

According to Fill Bear, the influence of the Seven Stars Sword Clan in the Royal Country of Green Forest comes second only to the Imperial Family!

Most importantly, the Seven Stars Sword Clan recruits outer sect disciples once every half year, more frequently than the other four top sects...

However, even so, the number of people in the Seven Stars Sword Clan is far less than in the other four top sects.

The Seven Stars Sword Clan is notoriously selective when recruiting outer sect disciples!
